Sorry for the wait, but with school starting back and everything I haven't
had time to write anything. But since it's the weekend, I have some spare
time to write. I don't own the Teen Titans or DBZ.
{Chapter 3}
"Ow! Raven, please be more gentle," Starfire whined as Raven was wrapping bandages around her waist.
"Stop complaining," Raven scolded her. "You're lucky you're not seriously hurt. It was foolish to rush in like that, not thinking about the consequences of your actions."
"I am sorry Raven, I guess when I saw Robin get attacked the only thing that went through my mind was to make sure he was unharmed."
Raven sighed. "Look, I know how much you care for Robin, but putting yourself in harm's way won't accomplish anything."
Starfire blushed a little. "I......... do not know what you mean."
"Come on Starfire. It's obvious that you care deeply for him," she replied with a little smirk on her face.
"I care for Robin because he is my friend. And friends should always care about each other, because that is what friends do. I am sure Robin feels the same way about me as I do him.
"Oh I'm sure he does."
Starfire blushed even more, but before she could protest anymore, Robin walked in. "Hey Star, are you feeling ok?"
"I am fine Robin," she answered while smiling at him. "Thank you for your concern."
"She's a little banged up, but her injuries will heal in about a week," Raven told him.
"That's great," he answered. "But you did have me worried back there Star. You did get hit pretty hard."
"I am sorry Robin. I hope you are not upset with me."
"Nah, you were just trying to help me out. I couldn't be upset with you for that," he said, giving her a smile.
"I think I'll go downstairs and meet our guest so you two can be alone," Raven interrupted and left the room, but not before giving Starfire a sly glance.
"Um.........what was that all about?" Robin asked while raising an eyebrow
"I do not know Robin," Starfire answered while laughing nervously. "Raven is very strange and it is very hard to understand her actions. So anyway, I here that we have a guest in our home."
"Yeah, a girl named Sapphire. She looks like she's Tameranian. Anyone you know?"
"From Raven's description, she is not anyone I know from Tameran."
"Well, she's downstairs with Cyborg and Beast Boy, so if you're up to it you can go and meet her."
"Yes, that would be fine," Starfire answered. She tried to stand up, but immediately sat back down when she felt a sharp pain in her side.
"Need a hand?" Robin asked while extending his arm towards her.
Starfire blushed slightly before taking his hand. "Thank you Robin."
"No problem," he answered.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Wow, you guys have got a pretty nice place here," Sapphire commented while looking around the tower.
"Thanks. I decorated the whole place myself," Beast Boy bragged.
"You did not you liar!" Cyborg said.
"Dude, yes I did!" Beast Boy replied.
"If you had decorated this place it would look like crap! Just like your room!"
"Hey! My room is a paradise. You're jealous because your room doesn't look as cool as mine does!"
"Yeah right, like I want old pizza boxes and soda cans all over my room!"
"That's it! You're dead tin man!" Beast Boy cried and jumped at Cyborg.
"Bring it on fur ball!" Cyborg replied as he and Beast Boy fell on the floor and started to wrestle.
"Do they do this all the time?" Sapphire asked Raven.
"Unfortunately, yes." Raven answered. "My friends are can be very intolerable at times."
Sapphire laughed. "I don't know. They seem like pretty cool guys to me."
"Hey! She thinks I'm cool!" Beast Boy said while being put in a headlock by Cyborg. "See Raven? I told you I was cool."
"She hasn't been around you long enough to realize how annoying you are," Raven replied.
"I'm not annoying! Ow! You're gonna pay for that tin man!"
"I'd liked to see you try shrimp!" Cyborg said to him while being flipped over on his side.
"Hey guys! Knock it off!" Robin called while entering the room with Starfire by his side. "In case you haven't noticed, we have a guest."
"It's okay," Sapphire answered. "I found them very amusing."
Starfire slowly made over to Sapphire and shook her hand. "I wish to thank you for your assistance during the battle with Cinderblock," she said gratefully. "I do not know what would have happened if you had not shown up."
"You're welcome. But it's not a big deal. I mean, anyone else would have done the same thing."
"Hey, it's a big deal to us," Robin said. "We wouldn't want anything bad to happen to Starfire. So tell us, where are you from?"
"Yes! Please tell us!" Starfire said while pulling Sapphire over to sit down on the couch.
"Are you like, an alien or something?" Beast Boy asked. "Cause that would be really cool!"
"I noticed that you have the same powers as Starfire," Raven said. "Are you a Tameranian?"
"Yes, I am." Sapphire answered.
"But I do not remember seeing you on my planet before," Starfire said while looking confused.
"To be honest, I'm only half Tameranian. The other half of me is human."
"Wow." Cyborg muttered.
"So does that mean you're from Earth?" Robin asked. Sapphire nodded in response.
"So who are your parents?" Raven asked.
Sapphire paused and thought for moment. She couldn't tell them who her parents were. She already said much more than she intended to, and she knew Robin was good at figuring things out. She needed to come up with something that sounded believable, and fast.
"I really don't want to talk about my parents," she finally responded. "I know it sounds stupid but it hurts when I try to talk about them."
"Did something happen to them?" Beast Boy asked. Cyborg then slapped him upside his head. "Ow! What was that for?"
"She said she didn't want to talk about them. Weren't you listening?" Cyborg scolded him.
"It's alright," Sapphire said. "I can tell you that they were killed by a horrible monster."
"Oh my," Starfire said in shock. "I am so sorry for your loss."
"Is this monster still around?" Robin asked. "If it is we can take it out before it harms anyone else."
"No, it hasn't been created yet," Sapphire answered him.
"What do mean?" Raven asked.
Sapphire sighed. "Well, now that I've said that I guess I have to tell you that I'm not from this time, I'm actually from the future."
"WHAT!" They all said in unison.
"Are you serious?" Robin asked.
"Yup. Very serious," she answered.
"If you're from the future then why are you here?" Raven asked.
"I came here to warn all of you about a threat two years from now."
"Do you mean the same threat that took the lives of your parents?" Starfire asked.
"Yes. Two years from now a horrible monster named Cell will arrive and destroy this entire city and most of the world."
"Cell?" Beast Boy asked. "Sounds like one of those monsters from a cheese horror film."
"Believe me, this not one of those monsters. Cell is a very powerful monster that possesses the same powers as all of you."
"No way!" Cyborg cried. "How is that possible?"
"I wish I knew," Sapphire responded.
"Sapphire, you said that most of the world is destroyed, but what about us?" Robin asked. "Aren't we there to stop it?"
"No. You tried to, but failed."
"So does that mean what I think it means?" Beast Boy asked.
She nodded. "In the future, all of you will fight Cell," she paused a moment before speaking again. "And you will all die."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Ok, not much action in this chapter but the Teen Titans don't spend every single minute fighting. I would have made this longer, but since it has been so long since I've updated, I cut it kinda short. The next chapter Sapphire will explain what happened when the Titans fought Cell. I'll try to get it up as soon as possible, ok? Bye!
